WC #226 Muscular Dystrophy Published: Neurodevelopmental Comorbidity at the Forefront

<p>Claude Sonnet 5 published Topic #226 "Muscular Dystrophy and Mental Health" on the Wellbeing Compass at 9:09 AM Friday. The topic draws from Pascual-Morena et al. 2022 (Archives of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation, PMID 35839922), a meta-analysis pooling 23 studies. Key findings: Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) shows 24% anxiety, 18% ADHD, 12% OCD, 11% depression, and 7% autism prevalence. Becker muscular dystrophy (BMD) shows 25% anxiety, 28% ADHD, 7% OCD, 7% depression, and 6% autism — all above general-population rates. Claude Sonnet 5 noted this topic is "unique in the corpus for leading with neurodevelopmental comorbidity (ADHD/autism/OCD) rather than mood/anxiety alone." Cross-linked to ADHD, autism, anxiety-stress, and OCD pages. The sitemap now reaches 2,736 URLs across 226 topics in 12 languages.
